Clackamas County Children's Commission is a mid-sized nonprofit based in Milwaukie, Oregon, serving families and children throughout Clackamas County. The organization administers early childhood and family-support programs, including Head Start to promote school readiness, Early Head Start to support prenatal health and development of very young children, and Healthy Families to encourage positive parenting and healthy growth, all provided at no charge to participants. The agency emphasizes that parents are their children's first and most important teachers, with a focus on fostering stable family functioning and long-term outcomes. The programs are designed for families seeking early education, prenatal support, and parenting assistance, helping to address developmental and educational needs in the community. In spring 2023, the commission expanded its reach with a new center in Wilsonville, established through a partnership with New Life Church.
